Comparison of Mitochondrial Incubation Media for Measurement of Respiration and Hydrogen Peroxide Production

High-Resolution FluoRespirometry is a well-established and versatile approach to study mitochondrial oxygen uptake amperometrically in combination with measurement of fluorescence signals. One of the most frequently applied fluorescent dyes is Amplex UltraRed for monitoring rates of hydrogen peroxide production. Selection of an appropriate mitochondrial respiration medium is of crucial importance, the primary role of which is to support and preserve optimum mitochondrial function. For harmonization of results in a common database, we compared respiration and H
